Have you ever heard of putting pee in your ear for an earache?!


Question: Have you ever heard of putting pee in your ear for an earache.?
Answers:
Urine is recommended as a treatment for all kinds of things in Ayruvedic traditional medicine, both in applying it to the skin and drinking it.

While there is no harm, as urine is sterile, there is also no particular benefit. However, urine is high in a protein waste called urea. Urea is used in some skin creams, and from a famous 'Friends' episode, we all know it can relieve the pain of a sea urchin sting.Health Question & Answer

It could do potentially. Urine has go tsome antiseptic properties and I do remember when i was on a remote island in southeast asia pissing on my feet when they got badly cut during an unexpected jungle trek where i was ill equiped. It's unlikely you'd have me volunteer to let anyone piss in my ear though.Health Question & Answer

Considering the huge bulk of practical and inexpensive over-the-counter remedies available, I really don't care if it works, frankly. Why bother if so many other more practical and less stinky ways are available!.? LOL!Health Question & Answer

Even though your urine is sterile coming out of your body, don't put it in your ear.
